The Secret Achievements of HearthPwn
So we have this awesome thing called the achievements system on HearthPwn. There have been a lot of inquiring minds to see if I would reveal all the secret achievements the site has before the shutdown.
Hell yeah, let's do it. If you go any further in this post, there are spoilers.
How Many Secrets?
Forty. There were forty secret achievements I created on HearthPwn (with some help from the kick-ass mod team) that were available for earning. The best part about secret achievements was coming up with the names. There were tons of references to help you figure out what you needed to do but unfortunately, not everyone was able to figure them all out but it was fun to send people on the hunt.
I do regret some of the references being very easy to not understand due to when you tried to go after the achievement, but in a way that made it more fun since you had to go on a proper search. Something like Nice Meme where you needed to create a deck with Ticking Abomination in it is tough to figure out unless you were around when the card was revealed. For those not in the know, Blizzard revealed Ticking Abomination after we were left in silence for just over two weeks since Frozen Throne has been announced. That is the card we were greeted with. The anger was insane!
That's Just Crazy
Although this has been spoiled in the past by some people, that's just crazy is indeed the craziest secret achievement HearthPwn had. As of writing only 221 community members earned the achievement!
What was the criteria you ask? Well, that's a secret! Okay, fine.
Visit the website every single day for an entire year. Yup, many of those who guessed the criteria for it were correct this whole time. The hardest part about it was being consistent in your arrivals. Due to the site being hosted in the Central American timezone, it was quite possible for you to technically visit the site on two different days in your country but really, we saw it as visits on the same day here. I don't believe the tracking was ever perfect but I am proud of being the first person to obtain the achievement and for Arthas, my bot, being one of the last.
More Crazy Secret Achievements
While we're talking about achievements that weren't earned by many, these are the top five rarest secret achievements outside of That's Just Crazy.
- [300] Now That's a Mad Lad - Visit Mad Hatter's card page.
- [378] Kira's Guardian - Create a deck using Bwonsamdi, the Dead.
- One of my favourite references since it is from Death Note, an anime favourite.
- Kira (killer) is the name given to Light Yagami by his followers. The Guardian of Kira is a shinigami (god of death) named Ryuk, which is a character Bwonsamdi in WoW really takes after.
- [565] HOWDY! - Visit Annoy-o-Tron's incredibly annoying brother's card page.
- The sound effect made by Annoy-o-Module
- [664] Death Note - Visit Bwonsamdi, the Dead's Card Page.

If you want to stay together with all of us orphans of the HearthPwn community, myself and our wonderful site staff have started up a new project over at OutOf.Cards. We encourage you to come see your old friends from HearthPwn over there - the goal is to support all the features HearthPwn had and do even more!

You are welcome
Kudos for the great journey on hearthpwn! Maximum respect for the commitment and the hard work.
I will keep following you on outof.cards, keep up the wonderful job!
These were really fun to try to unlock. Hope site achievements will be implemented in outof.cards
Glad to see how many dbags exist on this page lmao
Ok, now this is epic.
this post is really sad.
I easily spent at least 2+ more years logging in on hpwn everyday and never got the achievement. I kinda knew it was about timezones so I gave up. No love for the EU master race.
When I read "Blind Rage" I thought it was about posting in the salt thread haha
Some of the references i understood made a deck containing the card. didn't get it and then i assumed i was wrong and gave up.
I didnt even think i should visit the card page lol
It was pretty easy to determine, which ones were "create a deck with X", since you could see the deck names, and even the decks themselves, when you looked at who got the achievement already :)
If there was nothing like this, it was probably goin to be "visit a card's page" or something else :)
Missed most of them because I never login until I want to comment on something or update my collection, will not make the same mistake on the new site lol
I hope you realize that by revealing the Secret achievements, you can't put them on Outofcards because people will now know what they are.
But anyways, time to get some of these achievements. I now have a reason to make my first deck on this site, and just put all of the Secret achievement cards in it.
EDIT: Right here - https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1281093-the-secret-achievement-deck
Thanks to CoolStoryHub for making the original - https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1280801-easy-secret-achievments-deck
Before the deck I had 9 Gold, 38 Silver, 208 Bronze. After the deck, I now have 13 Gold, 50 Silver, and 212 Bronze.
We wouldnt put the same ones there anyway, what would be the point. The achievement system will be much more complex and interesting once it is done, just you wait :)
Anyway, cg to the nice collection here ;-)
It might be a dumb question but where can i find the not secter achievements?
